Vintage Magic Props  - 17 x Double Faced JUMBO CARDS


(Unknown stock) Each card shows the Ace of Diamonds backed by the Eight of Spades


******************



Each card measures 7" x approx. 4.5" and has rounded corners as pictured above.

 



  These cards are of unknown but good quality stock.  You will surely find a Magical use for them?! ... Prediction Cards, Comedy and Unusual Giveaways maybe, Advertising etc.


They are in Very Good Condition considering their probable age (1950s, 60s  and 70s)

OK, so I’ll detail (for FREE here!) how I use one of these strange items myself ---- would you believe? ---- as GIVEAWAYS!  First, I have a card 'chosen' from a ‘straight’ deck using (in your case) ‘your favourite method’ of course!  In this case it would be either the red Ace or the black 8 spot value on offer ………… one of the Jumbo cards concerned previously being tabled in an A5 sized envelope with a known card value nearest the flap, as a PREDICTION.

 I go through the usual machinations of trying to find/guess the chosen card from the deck (you use your own chat etc. necessary here, naturally) and eventually draw forth the Prediction Jumbo card --- but ONLY showing the non chosen side (i.e. if the Ace is the forced card, I bring out the Jumbo with the 8 spot side showing) and by pausing, supposedly await the applause.  When I’m told that my Prediction is wrong I look puzzled and offer to SIGN the BACK of the card anyway & offer it as “a souvenir of a very sus – er - auspicious occasion!”  I then sign across the 8 of Spades face using a permanent marker of course, pause and finally TURN OVER the card to at last show the correct/predicted side --- before passing said Jumbo to the watching spectator.

  {For those who haven’t quite ‘twigged’ the joke yet --- the idea is that, apparently, you have a fast depleting Jumbo deck somewhere at home with  the ’8 of Spades’ as its back design throughout!} 



The above images are of the ACTUAL cards on offer here and not from 'stock'.
